"Fun" fact: the Royal Academy of the Spanish Language (RAE) accepts the term "coronabebé" (babys born during the pandemic, a term that obviously no one has ever used and won't even be used in the future) but doesn't accept the gender neutral -e termination despite being very commonly used in left wing spaces and even casual conversation (if the speakers are cool and sexy and clever and awesome, obviously).

I don't speak Spanish, but I do dabble in learning it occasionally, when I have time. But I've found it super useful for certain things. I dated a nonbinary guy a while back, and while he did use he/him pronouns, he was very uncomfortable with the term "boyfriend," and girlfriend didn't fit either. We settled on novie. Neither of us speak Spanish, but it just fit way better.

It made both of us very happy to piss off conservatives in two languages.
